Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a drop-in replacement for my Jazz Bass?

Yes, the AJB-2B is designed as a direct replacement bridge pickup for Jazz Bass and P-J configurations. It includes mounting and wiring hardware for installation. Available as a single bridge pickup or as a complete neck-and-bridge set if you want to upgrade both positions.

What genres does this pickup work best for?

The Lightin' Rods excel in blues, country, pop, and classic rock where vintage warmth and note clarity matter. The focused midrange and bright bridge tone make it less suited for metal and djent styles.

How long does the battery last?

Battery life is approximately 1,000 continuous hours per set. For extended tone-shaping control, Seymour Duncan recommends pairing these with an STC-2 or STC-3 Tone Circuit.

What makes this different from vintage pickups?

The exposed Alnico 5 pole pieces provide the smooth, warm character of vintage designs while the active circuitry delivers bright, assertive response—especially in the bridge position—that cuts through live and recorded settings without sacrificing clarity.

What's included in the box?

The pickup comes with logo covers, mounting hardware, and wiring hardware. Single bridge pickup or set options are available depending on your needs.
